My father is an example of the "American Dream." With $105 in his pocket, he immigrated from South Korea during the Korean War to the USA. He won a scholarship during the 1950's to East Tennessee University when segregation was predominant. My father also did not speak English which made it harder for him to succeed. My father instilled in us boys that you can do Anything, if you put your mind to it. My father is also a God-fearing man. He is now in his late 70's early 80's and still continues to work. I Love You Dad!
